Easy fix: 'slide' (well, nobody uses real slides anymore :-) rationing.

E.g. if a presenter has a 10 minute slot, maximum of 3 'slides'
(approximately; maybe less). That will force the slides to be 'discussion
frameworks', rather than 'detailed overview of the design'.

Noel,

I tried the 3 slide limit in the End2end Research Group some years ago, and it did not work very well. Presenters just can't discipline themselves that much, no matter how hard you beat on them.
